Does Mcgregor have the worse cardio of any fighter under 170?

[JSnake]

it wasn't a title fight. NON TITLE FIGHT. that is null. still not a single example of a championship fight.



aside from that, however, it was a 10 minute round(twice as long as the time of the UFC 1st round) with a lot more time grappling on the ground which drains you faster.

Gomi's clear excuse is that he was fighting under an athletic commission for the 1st time just like all those other Japanese stars. They all seem to underwhelm fighting with drug testing.

what is Conor's excuse?



i'm just entertaining your desperate reaching btw.


AT THE END OF THE DAY, IT'S NOT A CHAMPIONSHIP FIGHT.

Conor vs Diaz wasn't a title fight either, so your point is irrelevant.

Wrong. Have you even watched the fight? Since the event was in the US it was a 5 minute 1st round.

nope, i set up the premise so we can have a select candidate pool to pick from. still in the hundreds of thousands btw or else people can pick fat lards gassing after 20 punches in some backyard.


i didn't set up that premise jsut to compare championship fight to championship fight. so your assumption is wrong.


nice try in moving my goal post

 

[I WILL CUT YOU]

He's lighter but he has the most physical advantages of almost every other fighter on the roster.

Yeah, precisely why Stefan Struve, Kendall Grove, and George Roop are GOAT candidates.


No, it's Conor's reach and weight advantage that made him look godly. Imagine if Rockhold starved himself to make 170.


Conor is 4-2 outside of featherweight. There is a reason he cuts ungodly amounts of weight to fight much smaller men.





One handed, one dimensional boxer with limited defense, ground skills, cardio, and heart. You fell for marketing and a huge weight cut. Congratufuckinglations.

 

[Iconoclast]

No. He fought a bigger man and he gassed trying to knock him out.

Nope. In your first post I responded to, you mentioned nothing about a "title" or "championship" fight, and simply asked for "anyone to cite a single example of another athlete tiring after throwing 74 strikes"... and you were given one who even threw significantly less than that.

Conor was the current featherweight champion and Gomi was the current lightweight champion during the time they fought the Diaz bros... so even in that respect your self-serving, irrelevant stipulation ended up failing you. What's been made clear by now, is that you have no intention of conceding that another fighter gassed after throwing 74 strikes or less, and were only using this as an opportunity to bash McGregor, so I'm not going to entertain this any further... sorry it didn't work out the way you wanted it to.

Just like I said in the beginning of this thread, championship fight is the line in the sand.

no need for this illogical back and forth. you are arguing with yourself.

if there's no such line then you can post a video of your dad gassing after slapping your mother 5 times as an example.

do you get it?


When you can't find a single example in a pool of hundreds of thousands of examples, that means you have atrocious cardio. period.

 

[I WILL CUT YOU]

No. He fought a bigger man and he gassed trying to knock him out.

Pre fight:
"The weight doesn't matter I'll run through the whole roster."

Post fight:
"It was simply me fighting the bigger man."

--Conor McGregor

 

[rtodd]

The problem was he threw everything he had behind every punch and normally his opponents are gone after one or two of those shots.

Not really going to waste my time further. You have no knowledge of MMA, yet you have such a deep inner hatred for Conor, and it shows throughout this pathetic, salty ass post. Go do something a little more productive with your life. Maybe talk to a girl every once and a while, it'll be a step up for you.

He's confident as fuck so of course he would say that. I was rooting for Nate and I think he's a night mare matchup for him at any weight. But yeah, McGregor ate crow for sure.

In Mcgregors last fight (and I've seen it in a few more fights), Mcgregor was basically tired after 4 minutes in the 1st round. Most of the time little guys have better stamina then bigger guys. Mcgregor has HEAVYWEIGHT level cardio..is there another fighter 170 and under with cardio worse then Conny Mac?

You are right. I noticed the 4 minutes 1:st round gas too! He has terrible cardio when he is fighting in WW, for sure. I don't think there will be so much difference in the next fight unless he chooses to weigh-in at a lower weight then 170.

 

[mc3]

By itself his cardio is probably OK but he doesn't like getting hit hard, absorbing one hard shot cost him probably half a round in cardio

 

[BoxingFan653]

I knew there was a weakness in Conor after the Mendes fight...everyone said it was a fluke and he's GOAT. The reality is he looked so lost on the grounf and was begging the ref to stand them up.

If Chad just kept elbowing him and exhausting him he had a good chance but I think he made a mistake going for the submission and was just too exhausted. I still give a ton of cred to Conor he's a good fighter at 145 but to be at the JJ or Silva level as many of his fans claimed, it would require elite ground+striking.

Dude has tapped out 3 times now within seconds...its not looking good

Yes, he has too practise wrestling take down defense and brazilian jiu jitsu like hell if he wants to get a real chance on LW-belt or even defending his FW-belt.

 

[catnap]

He put all his strength into some of those shots. Literally any fighter would get tired if they threw everything but the kitchen sink in every punch. He had really bad pacing but it says nothing about his cardio.

Not strictly true. Marcos Maidana throws those haymakers all night long.

 

[Rittsy]

We've seen him go three rounds before...

It was very weird to see a guy that light gas so badly. Consider it next to Jones vs Gus or DC vs Gus, when 205lbs+ dudes went hell for leather for all 25, and they all took considerable punishment in those fights. McGregor has the same cardio as 265lbs Shane Carwin. Very strange.

• I train judo
• I train bjj
• I train Muay Thai
• Watching since 1997
• Married 10 years with 2 kids who also grapple

Your assumptions are ridiculous. Maybe, just maybe, this forum and the ridiculous Conor nuthuggers deserve the blowback after more than a year of shit like:

• McGOATger
• Conor is the best striker in mma history
• Conor ko's Lawler in 1
• Conor could beat Rockhold
• Conor could give Jones a competitive fight
• Conor has amazing jits
• Conor never gasses
• "OMG Conor just said ________"
• "OMG Conor just tweeted _____"

There is a reason fanbois like your boyfriend @0hm haven't shown their face since fight night, kid. McGregor and his ridiculous noob fans deserve every bite of crow I'm force-feeding them.

 

[chinarice]

Sherdog when a guy beats midgets------> Best fighter eva! GOAT! Best striker in mma history!!! 1!

Then Nate beats a "midget" and the crowd goes wild

Sherdog = Double-Standard-fest.

Sherdoggers are the best comic relief around and they don't even try to be.

 

[capnlarge]

As far as lighter weight classes, the worst cardio has to be Diego Brandao.
